Excerpts From BlueNC Blogger Bash Speech
In reference to the democratic role of judges and justices, Reynolds stated that "we're not policy makers." She believes that any member on the court should "have the courage to take the cases that we should take and then to write the opinions that clarify the law." She emphatically stated that judges "ought to write opinions that clarify the law," and reminded her audience that judges and justices were "really in your [the voters'] hands."
